Same as the last two posts

I see Old Skool to be what was current for me back in the day.
FWD (except on maybe early Fiestas and Minis) was new money and the beggining of the modern era for me.
Even a Cossie was modern fangled electrickery but at least only part the way there and hardly that common
It is an age related term I think. Bit like Facebook albums called Old Skool, when the profile belongs to a 19 year old and it's them out with their mates down the park sneaking a ciggy and cider only 6 months ago

Both could be considered as old skool really.

Both are from a bygone age, it's just the one is older than the other!
